Pills cure gut infections Hold your nose and don’t spit out your coffee: Doctors have found a way to put healthy people’s stool into pills that can cure serious gut infections — a less yucky way to do “fecal transplants.”

Canadian researchers tried this on 27 patients and cured them all after strong antibiotics failed to help.

SPENCERVILLE — Dennis Fuge, a graduate of Miami East High School, began his career at Spencerville Local Schools and has served the community of Spencerville his whole teaching career.

On Tuesday, Fuge will be tapped as the Spencerville Local Schools’ superintendent. Fuge began his teaching career at the district 32 years ago and has held a variety of positions throughout those three decades.

“I am honored to accept the position of Superintendent of Schools at Spencerville,” Fuge said in the press release. “My entire educational career has been at Spencerville and I look forward to continuing our excellent reputation as a school.

It will be difficult to follow Mr. Hatfield as he has been an outstand-

ing leader for our school and community, but I have full confidence that I will continue to prepare our school for the challenges that exist as we move forward as a district.”

Fuge has invested his entire professional career with Spencerville Local Schools serving the district for 32 years starting as a teacher in 1981. During his tenure he has served in many capacities including high school teacher, summer maintenance worker, various coaching positions, Faculty Manager, Middle School Principal, Athletic Director, Special Education Officer, Asst.

Transportation Director, OSHA Compliance Officer, K-8 Principal and is currently the K-6 Principal.

He also has served on various committees and project teams including Race to the Top and Safe Routes to School.

“I’m looking forward to lead the school district,” Fuge said. Fuge said the district has approximately 1,000 students and likens the rural

community to his roots in Miami County.

“The kids are just super,” Fuge said of Spencerville Local Schools.

“I fell in love with the district, raised my family here and I’m very excited about this opportunity.”

The Spencerville Local Schools Board of Education will take action at a special board meeting Tuesda to employ Fuge as Superintendent of schools to replace Mr. Joel Hatfield who is retiring effective Jan. 1, 2014.

“Mr. Hatfield has been our superintendent here for the last 14 years so I have some pretty big shoes to fill,” Fuge said of the former superintendent. “We really got a pretty awesome district here and we’ve been meeting and discussing making adjustments with all the challenges that all Ohio districts are facing.”

Fuge attended Miami East High School. He received his B.A. in Marketing and Education, and a Minor in History from Ohio

Northern University. He received his M.A. in School Administration from the University of Dayton.

According to the press release, the Spencerville Local Schools’ board reviewed numerous qualified applicants and felt Fuge was an outstanding choice to lead the district forward.

Fuge and his wife Pat, reside in the rural Spencerville area. They are parents of four children, Kory (Maria), Erika, Tricia, and Jenna and the grandparents of Lydia.

“Dennis Fuge has been a loyal employee and member of the Spencerville community for many years,” said Lori Ringwald, President of Specerville Local Schools’ board of education. “He has a sincere passion for our district and a genuine caring for the students and the staff. The Board of Education welcomes him as he transitions in to his new position as Superintendent of Spencerville Local Schools.”

Donna Meade photographs big dogs, small dogs, cats and even puppies for the Miami County Animal Shelter.

It’s a dog’s life: Joyell Nevins

Record Herald Editor jnevins@civitasmedia.com

TIPP CITY - Donna Meade’s photography is going to the dogs — and that’s a good thing.

As a member of HeARTs Speak, a network of artists committed to reducing the number of animals euthanized worldwide, Meade is using her skills to reduce that number in Miami and Montgomery counties.

Meade worked as a civilian photographer for the Marine Corps and then the Air Force for 30 years.

Woman uses photography skills to save animals

About three years ago, Meade retired from that, got married, moved to Tipp City, and started volunteering with the Humane Society of Greater Dayton. She heard they were looking for professional photographers to take pictures of adoptable animals, and jumped on the opportunity.

“It helps save the animals — it’s giving something back,” she said.

Three weeks ago, Meade took that same approach to the Miami County Animal Shelter. The connection to the shelter occurred when she found a stray in her yard and contacted the shelter to have

them come pick it up. When she looked on the website and saw the basic point-and-shoot photos, Meade thought she could help.

“You need to be able to picture that animal in your home,” Meade said of the importance of how the photo looks.

“I’ve been asking for a nice camera, but it’s not in the cards. Now we get her and her nice camera,” said the shelter’s adoption specialist Christine Herring. Herring also is in charge of the website.

Koenig Equipment to host ‘Ladies Night’ Melanie Yingst

Staff Writer myingst@civitasmedia.com

TIPP CITY — Green and pink always seem to go together.

John Deere green is pitching in to help local women with basic lawn and garden equipment, while spreading the message of the “Pink Ribbon Girls.”

Koenig Equipment of Tipp City will host its first “Ladies Night” event on Thursday, Oct. 10 from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. at its showroom located at 5695 County Road 25-A, Tipp City.

Tom Patrick, service manager, said the idea of hosting a “Ladies Only”

clinic stemmed from talking to his customers in the area and found many women customers who needed help with basic lawn equipment fixes and maintenance issues.

“We get a lot of ladies in here who are unsure about how to do the basics with the equipment they have,” Patrick said. “This event is for them to learn how to perform basic oil changes on their lawn mower, check the gas levels and other mower basics or how to restring their hand-held equipment like a weed eater.”

Patrick said classes “just for the ladies” will be held every 30 minutes throughout the event

by Tipp City’s Koenig expert technicians. Also several local businesses and organizations are pitching in with the fun of the first ever event.

“We will cover operation, safety, and maintenance on John Deere, Honda, and Stihl lawn and garden equipment,” Patrick said.

The “Ladies Night” event was also created

by Koenig Equipment’s organizers as way to give back to women customers and to help raise awareness for the Ohiobased organization the “Pink Ribbon Girls.”

There is a reason the Fall Festival for Young Children has been going on for 12 years.

That reason is because it’s one of kind.

“It’s really the only festival in Miami Valley geared towards young kids and preschool children,” Fall Festival Coordinator Rachel Larson said. “All of our activities are focused on that age group.”

The 12th Annual Fall Festival for Young Children will be held from noon to 5 p.m. on Saturday at the Overfield School, located at 172 S. Ridge Ave. in Troy.

The event will feature live music, pony rides, tractor-pulled hay wagon rides, pumpkin decorating, food, games and prizes.

Children’s recording artist Carla Briggs will put on four performances throughout the day.

“There is a hay ride out to a pumpkin patch, where kids can take pumpkins and decorate it,” said Larson, who is in her third year at Overfield. “There are lots of games dedicated to kids.

There is face painting and a full cafe. I think one of the biggest parts of the festival is the raffle.

There are two raffles, one for children and one for adults. We have hundreds of prizes to give out.”

For additional information on the event, call (937) 339-5111.

Raids suggest future shape of counterterror bids

AP Photo This Oct. 2 photo shows a sign written in Spanish advertising calls to Cuba and the ability to activate cell phone for people in Cuba in the Little Havana neighborhood of Miami. The number of Cubans leaving the island has hovered around or above 30,000 since 2002, making the last 10 years the largest exodus since the start of the revolution. Their arrival is evident throughout Miami, the heart of Cubaճ exile population, from the myriad of shops that offer cell phone services, to the demand for performances by artists who still live on the island

Exodus of Cubans fuels clash of new and old MIAMI (AP) — At a small store on Eighth Street near Miami’s Little Havana, Armando Perez paid $25 to activate his daughter’s cell phone in Cuba. Store owner Laura Benitez sat behind a glass window, typing in the phone numbers for Perez and others calling Cuba.

“I call my daughter every week, even if it’s just for her to say, ‘Papi, I love you,’” said Perez, a thin man who left the island on a boat in 2008.

Benitez, who fled with her parents shortly after the 1959 Cuban Revolution, doesn’t have family in Cuba.

Many of her clients, however, grew up under the communist system and immigrated in the last 10 years.

“They need to go back to Cuba to see their family,” Benitez said. “I don’t understand because my parents are here. Maybe if they were

in Cuba I would go back.”

Some 46,662 Cubans left the island legally and permanently last year, the largest migration in a single year since 1994, according to figures from Cuba’s National Statistics Office.

Since 2002, the number leaving has hovered around 30,000 annually, making the last 10 years the largest exodus since the start of the revolution. That’s in addition to an estimated 7,000 to 19,000 who leave Cuba illegally each year — some by boat and many with the U.S. as their final destination.

The influx of new arrivals is evident throughout Miami, the heart of Cuba’s exile population, from myriad shops offering cell phone services to street fliers about performances by artists who still live on the island.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. commando raids in Libya and Somalia suggest the future shape of U.S. counterterrorism efforts — brief, targeted raids against highly sought extremist figures — and highlight the rise of Africa as a terrorist haven.

The strikes also raise questions about where to interrogate and try captured terrorist suspects such as Abu Anas al-Libi, accused by the U.S. of involvement in the 1998 bombings of two American embassies in Africa.

Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said Sunday that al-Libi was in U.S. custody; officials would not say where.

The chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, Rep. Howard “Buck” McKeon, said alLibi has “vast intelligence value.”

McKeon, R-Calif., said President Barack Obama should “fully exploit this potential” before moving on to his prosecution. The White House seemed to agree, saying Saturday’s raid in Tripoli was specifically designed to apprehend, not kill, the suspect.

“The president has made clear our preference for capturing terrorist targets when possible, and that’s exactly what we’ve done in order to elicit as much valuable intelligence as we can and bring a dangerous

terrorist to justice,” said the White House National Security Council’s spokeswoman, Caitlin Hayden.

The outcome of a second U.S. commando raid Saturday, targeting a leader of the al-Qaida affiliated terror group, al-Shabab, was less clear.

A Navy SEAL team swam ashore in Somalia early in the morning and engaged in a fierce firefight.

A U.S. official said afterward the Americans disengaged after inflicting some al-Shabab casualties, but it was unclear who was hit. The official was granted anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly.

The raid in Somalia reflected the importance the Obama administration attaches to combating al-Shabab, whose leaders are believed to be collaborating more with other al-Qaida affiliated Islamic insurgent groups across Africa.

In a speech in May outlining his strategy for the use of drones, Obama counted Somalia as among the places where the U.S. and its allies face “lethal yet less capable al-Qaida affiliates.”

The commando assaults unfolded against the backdrop of political paralysis in Washington, where the Congress and the White House are locked in battle over budgets but have agreed to keep the military operating and paid on time.

Libya said Sunday it has asked the United States for “clarifications” regarding the capture of al-Libi by U.S. Delta Force commandos.

The Tripoli government said that al-Libi, as a Libyan national, should be tried in his own country. He is on the FBI’s most-wanted list of terrorists with a $5 million bounty on his head. He was indicted by the U.S. in November 1998.

In a statement, Libya also said it hoped the incident would not affect its strategic relationship with the U.S., which is evolving in the aftermath of the 2011 ouster of longtime ruler Moammar Gadhafi. Ties were complicated by the Sept. 11, 2012, attack on U.S. diplomatic facilities in Benghazi, in eastern Libya.

Sen. Kelly Ayotte, R-N.H., a vocal advocate of placing captured highvalue terrorist suspects in the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay, said Sunday that al-Libi should be treated as an enemy combatant, detained in military custody “and interrogated to gather information that will prevent future attacks and help locate other al-Qaida terrorists.”

Al-Libi was indicted by a federal court in New York for his alleged role in the bombings of the U.S. Embassies in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and Nairobi, Kenya, on Aug. 7, 1998, that killed more than 220 people.

Experts begin dismantling Syrian chemical program

BEIRUT (AP) — International disarmament experts on Sunday began dismantling and destroying Syria’s chemical weapons arsenal and the equipment used to produce it, taking the first concrete step in their colossal task of eliminating the country’s chemical stockpile by mid-2014, an official said.

The inspectors from the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons have about nine months to purge President Bashar Assad’s regime of

its chemical program. The mission, endorsed by the U.N. Security Council, faces the tightest deadline in the watchdog group’s history and must simultaneously navigate Syria’s bloody civil war.

Sunday marked the fifth day that an advance team of around 20 inspectors have been in the country and the first day that involved actually disabling and destroying weapons and machinery, an official on the joint OPCWU.N. mission said.

The team oversaw Syrian

personnel who used cutting torches and disc saws to destroy and disable a range of items, including missile warheads, aerial bombs, and mixing and filling equipment, the OPCW said in a statement.

The Syrians are responsible for the actual physical demolition of the materials, while OPCW inspectors monitor the process and verify what is being destroyed, the official said. He declined to provide details or say where the work took place.

The official spoke on condi-

tion of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter.

This is just the beginning of a complicated process to eliminate Syria’s estimated 1,000-ton chemical weapons stockpile and the facilities that created it. Damascus developed its chemical program in the 1980s and 1990s, building an arsenal that is believed to contain mustard gas and the nerve agents sarin VX and tabun.

The production and storage facilities are understood to be scattered around the country.

Once Meade has the raw footage, she edits the photos, adds the HeARTs Speak “Adopt Me!” logo, and posts them on her business Facebook page, along with sending the photos to the shelter for their site.

“It’s very rewarding.

I’m more than happy to do it,” Meade said.

And she doesn’t give preferential treatment to any type of breed unless its canine.

“I’ve always been a dog person,” she admitted. “I like them all - they all have different personalities. Each is suited for different families.”

Always a pet lover Meade’s love of animals started when she was young. She said growing up, she was always bringing home strays. Meade still helps care for animals in rescue situations, especially in hoarding stituations. She has had birds, cats and dogs reside in her home.

And every one of her personal pets started

as a rescued animal (she notes the miniature schnauzer “Tiny” she and her husband own wasn’t a rescue, but she “married into” that dog).

Even Meade’s business, Donna Meade Photography, is all about pets. It is exclusively dedicated to pet photography. The owner can be in the picture with their pet, but an animal has to be there somewhere.

“It’s a way to preserve their memory forever,” Meade said.

She said the most important quality of a pet photographer is patience.

“You need to wait for the animal to calm down,” Meade explained.

Meade is more than willing to share her expertise with other photographers - amateur or professional.

“I’m always trying to recruit,” Meade smiled.

She is trying to find other photographers to help at the animal shel-

ter, specifically. The shelter has space for 28 dogs and nine cats.

According to Hale, the shelter normally stays pretty full. The shelter has to keep strays for three working days to give an owner a chance to reclaim their pet; after that, amount of space and behavior are determining factors in if and when the animal is euthanized.

Meade pointed out that society’s perception of animals from a shelter is not always correct.

“The myth about shelter dogs is that they ’re ‘damaged goods,’” she said.

Owner releases made up about 16 percent of animals brought in this year. Herring said the main reasons for owners bringing their pets to the shelter is people who are moving, who have lost their home or an animal that’s become “too much to handle” - like when someone buys a small puppy, but doesn’t realize how big that full-grown dog will

become.

Currently, the shelter is housing 17 dogs, nine puppies and six cats. They are in need of dry kitten food and dry puppy food, and are always accepting volunteers.

Hale said people have taken notice of the sharp, well designed photos.

“It’s just amazing the difference,” Hale said.

“A lot of people call and comment on how good the photos look.”

Meade comes in once a week to photograph the new animals for the shelter. She brings props to get their attention, like wands with feathers or an empty water bottle, and accessories to make the animal even cuter. In her fanny pack, Meade has everything from a red bandana handkerchief to a pink baby headband she used as a hair bow for one of the smaller dogs.

“Cam and I have attended several of the March of Dimes Signature Chefs Auctions before, and the evening is always outstanding in so many ways,” Dr. Armstrong said. “I think the quality of the food from our local chefs is incredible, and the auction items are filled with fun things that you would probably not normally find, but they’re always different, and defi-

nitely worth your while.”

“We are thrilled to support a charity whose mission is finding ways for healthier babies,” he added. “We have been lucky to work with both Catherine Rahe of ManpowerGroup, and Steve Stapp of UTC Aerospace Systems. They, and their whole army of volunteers, are the reason this night is a sellout year after year.”

Primary sponsors include Aircrafters Inc., Upper Valley Medical Center/Premier Health, Fifth Third Bank and Ernst Concrete. Participating Establishments and Chefs include: Troy Country Club, The Caroline, Sweet by Kristy, Starry Dreams Catering, LeDoux’s Restaurant and Bar, The Bridge, The Inn at Versailles and Boston Stoker.

Funds raised by the Signature Chefs Auction support lifesaving research and important educational programs.

Premature birth is the most serious infant health problem in the United States today. It affects more than half a

million babies nationwide each year. Babies born too soon are more likely to die or have lifelong disabilities. The March of Dimes is committed to reversing this trend by funding research to find the causes of premature birth and developing strategies to prevent it. More than 4 million babies were born in the United States last year and the March of Dimes helped each and every one through 75 years of research, education, vaccines and breakthroughs.

ONLINE POLL

(WWW.TROYDAILYNEWS.COM)

Question: Who is to blame for the government shutdown, Democrats, Republicans or both?

Watch for final poll results in Sunday’s Miami Valley Sunday News.

Watch for a new poll question in Sunday’s Miami Valley Sunday News

PERSPECTIVE

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP The Anniston (Ala.) Star on guns in children’s hands: As if they were domestic arsenals, homes are filled with all sorts of items that, if used improperly by children, can kill.

Bug spray. Prescription medicines. Household cleaners. Power tools. Those little packets of dishwashing detergent. Lawnmowers.

Kitchen knives. Don’t think we’re making light of the obvious; there’s a reason why we use child-proof containers, put cleaning supplies out of reach of the littlest and don’t let children cut the grass if they aren’t strong enough to safely use the mower.

Guns undoubtedly fall into that category.

So much of this nation’s eternal debate over smart gun regulations is based on adults’ legal access to guns. Call it the Second Amendment guarantee. But, as a story in Sunday’s New York Times detailed, a not-so-hidden chapter of this debate involves children who die in gun-related accidents that stem from improper storage in the home.

Children, particularly the youngest, are inherently curious.

Despite parental warnings, they’ll touch hot stoves. And time after time, in state after state, American children have died from preventable shootings — and lawmakers cowering to the National Rifle Association and other lobbyists have overwhelmingly refused to put teeth into gun-ownership laws that would make improper storage a crime.

Because of what The Times calls “idiosyncrasies” in how these deaths are classified in different states, and because a large number of states do not consider death certificate information a matter of public record, the newspaper could not examine data from all 50 states.

Even in the NRA’s fictitious perfect world — in which America loosens gun-control regulations — the improper and unsafe storage of guns is inexcusable in terms of children. The Times cited example after example of children as young as 3 finding loaded guns underneath pillows, behind television sets, underneath couches, on tables and in unlocked drawers. And, yet, 32 states do not have safestorage regulations.

In reality, we do not equate firearms with lawnmowers or dishwashing detergent, though danger through unsupervised use is obvious. But we do see The Times’ report as a clarion call for lawmakers across the United States to do what’s right and seek stiff penalties for those whose unstored weapons lead to a child’s death.

Paris (Tenn.) Post-Intelligencer on the partial government shutdown: The government shutdown seeks to refight battles that have already been decided.

It seeks to defeat the Affordable Care Act, known as Obamacare, which already passed by both houses of Congress and was upheld by the Supreme Court. It is the law of the land.

On a deeper level, instigators of the shutdown seek to combat President Barack Obama, who won re-election fair and square.

Does Congress have an obligation to fund a program that it has enacted? Of course. Why launch a ship and then refuse to put a crew aboard?

The straightforward approach would be to repeal the law, but that would require a majority vote in each house. There aren’t enough opponents to win repeal, but there are enough to lock Congress up and prevent any action at all.

Still, the Affordable Care Act is not quite stopped in its tracks.

The new federal fiscal year begins today, and with it the reform measure’s Health Insurance Marketplace. The Web-based exchange lets people sign up for medical plans and see whether they qualify for subsidies to help buy policies.

Uninsured people in their 50s and 60s who are prone to preexisting conditions are among those who will benefit most.

As people become more familiar with the law and have their own experiences with it, it seems likely to become more popular. And people in their 50s and 60s are prone to vote.

In the end, public pressure is likely to be the hammer that breaks the stupid deadlock in Congress.

LETTERS Union is a bad idea To the Editor: Let me start by saying I am not against unions. My dad was in URW for 35 years and it was very good for our family.

However, based on my personal experience of four years belonging to this union at a another company in Troy, I believe this to be a bad choice for Conagra employees.

The day I started at the store in Troy I was told to pay an initiation fee of about $30 that I could recoup when I attended a union meeting. I asked where they were held and was told at a union hall on 25-A. Three years later, after the Cincinnati division had renegotiated, they announced we were having a meeting in Monroe.

What really upset me was this was first time union wanted to talk to us in three years.

Also, during Cincinnati contract talks, they were going to picket Troy store and I asked why. It was because Troy was the No. 1 sales store for Dayton area. Yet our meeting was outside of Dayton region. I then asked who our union steward was because I had not met them in three years. I was told by someone that these issues were the peoples’ fault for not speaking up. I believe that if we pay dues, the union leadership needs to train there representatives not blame the people.

Yet another issue I thought was disturbing is during contract talks I received lots of mail from the union, including one letter about meeting in Monroe and when talks started, about 10 pamphlets a week telling me who I needed to vote for and why. These election pamphlets continued a year after I left the union.

My dues, totaling two hours of pay a week, paid for this, yet we couldn’t rent a hall close to a union target store? Remember, for a year someone else’s dues paid the remainder. I asked during Cincinnati region talks that if we picketed the store in Troy, do we get paid? The answer was yes, about $20 a day if you walked the line.

After contract talks were resolved in Dayton, I had to again ask, what was resolved? No meeting was ever done, or a breakdown of items posted.

I did find out that the union leadership had allowed the membership to be divided at least three ways. People with 20 years or more were the have it all; The 10-year people were the having some and the employees under 10 years (the majority) were all but forgotten.

I think this union is poorly organized and run and leadership only cares about the politics, not the membership. I am sorry but this union is not a good fit for the employees of Conagra Troy.

We would not allow conservative Congressman Jim Jordan to participate. He’s a main player in the debate, but he’s also one of the famous wrestling Jordans of St. Paris. We’d have to let his opponent have a gun to make it fair, and that would start a whole different problem.

I know what you’re going to say. It would be demeaning for the leaders of the most powerful nation on Earth to partake in such a primitive means of solving a problem. But wait … it’s not demeaning that the richest nation on Earth is a quadzillion dollars in debt? It’s not demeaning that the world’s most pampered politicians can’t find a way to keep the doors of government open? It’s not demeaning that our government creates a crisis, puts government workers on furlough to save money, then plans to pay them for not working? You might think the rest of the world would laugh at the Super Bowl of wrestling, but I have news for you … they’re already in hysterics.

We at least might as well make some money out of it.

I hope that by the time you read this, our fearless leaders have come to a solution. If not, I think we ought to get things ready at the Horseshoe or the Big House or the Rose Bowl for a good, old fashioned slam-down.

I get a portion of the concession sales.

Supreme Court term begins with contentious topics WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court is beginning a new term with controversial issues that offer the court’s conservative majority the chance to move aggressively to undo limits on campaign contributions, undermine claims of discrimination in housing and mortgage lending, and allow for more government-sanctioned prayer.

Assuming the government shutdown doesn’t get in their way, the justices also will deal with a case that goes to the heart of the partisan impasse in Washington: whether and when the president may use recess appointments to fill key positions without Senate confirmation.

The court was unaffected for the first few days of the government shutdown and there was no expectation that arguments set for October would have to be rescheduled.

The new term that starts Monday may be short on the sort of high-profile battles over health care and gay marriage that marked the past two years.

But several cases ask the court to overrule prior decisions — bold action in an institution that relies on the power of precedent.

“There are an unusual number of cases going right to hot-button cultural issues and aggressive briefing on the conservative side asking precedents to be overruled,” said Georgetown University law professor Pamela Harris, who served in President Barack Obama’s Justice Department.

Paul Clement, a frequent advocate before the court and the top Supreme Court lawyer under President George W. Bush, agreed that the opportunity exists for dramatic precedent-busting decisions. But Clement said each case also offers the court “an off-ramp,” a narrower outcome that may be more in keeping with Chief Justice John Roberts’ stated desire for incremental decision-making that bridges the court’s ideological divide.

There is a familiar ring to several cases the justices will take up.

Campaign finance, affirmative action, legislative prayer and abortion clinic protests all are on the court’s calendar.

The justices also will hear for the sec-

AP Photo In this Jan. 21, 2010, file photo Citizens United President David Bossie talks on his cell phone outside the Supreme Court in Washington after the court’s controversial, 5-4 decision in the Citizens United case, which allowed corporations and labor unions to spend unlimited sums in support of or opposition to candidates, as long as the spending is independent of the candidates. A new campaign finance case, McCutcheon v. Federal Election Commission, to be heard Tuesday, Oct. 8, 2013, is the first major case on the court’s new term calendar. It challenges the overall limits on what an individual may give to candidates, political parties and political action committees in a two-year federal election cycle.

ond time the case of Carol Anne Bond, a woman who was convicted under an anti-terrorism law for spreading deadly chemicals around the home of her husband’s mistress.

The justices probably will decide in the fall whether to resolve competing lower court decisions about the new health care law’s requirement that employer-sponsored health plans include coverage of contraceptives.

An issue with a good chance to be heard involves the authority of police to search the contents of a cellphone found on someone they arrest. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said over the summer that the right to privacy in the digital age “is bound to come up in many forms” in the years ahead.

The court may hear its first abortion case since 2007, a review of an Oklahoma law that would restrict the use of certain abortion-inducing drugs such as RU-486.

The campaign finance argument on

Tuesday is the first major case on the calendar. The 5-4 decision in the Citizens United case in 2010 allowed corporations and labor unions to spend unlimited sums in support of or opposition to candidates, as long as the spending is independent of the candidates.

The new case, McCutcheon v. Federal Election Commission, is a challenge to the overall limits on what an individual may give to candidates, political parties and political action committees in a two-year federal election cycle, currently $48,600 to candidates and $123,600 in total. The $2,600 limit on contributions to a candidate is not at issue.

Since the Buckley v. Valeo decision in 1976, the court has looked more favorably on contribution limits than on spending restrictions because of the potential for corruption in large contributions. The big issue in the current case is whether the justices will be just as skeptical of limits on contributing as on spending.

Boehner to Obama: No debt hike without concessions with us.”

Boehner also said he lacks the votes “to pass a clean CR,” or continuing resolution, a reference to the temporary spending bill without conditions that would keep the government operating. Democrats argue that their 200 members in the House plus close to two dozen pragmatic Republicans would back a so-called clean bill if Boehner just allowed a vote, but he remains hamstrung by his tea partystrong GOP caucus.

“Let me issue him a friendly challenge. Put it on the floor Monday or Tuesday. I would bet there are the votes to pass it,” said Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. In a series of Sunday television appearances, Lew warned that on Oct. 17, when he exhausts the bookkeeping maneuvers he has been using to keep borrowing, the threat of default

would be imminent.

“I’m telling you that on the 17th, we run out of the ability to borrow, and Congress is playing with fire,” Lew said.

Lew said that while Treasury expects to have $30 billion of cash on hand on Oct. 17, that money will be quickly exhausted in paying incoming bills given that the government’s payments can run up to $60 billion on a single day.

Treasury issued a report on Thursday detailing in stark terms what could happen if the government actually defaulted on its obligations to service the national debt.

“A default would be unprecedented and has the potential to be catastrophic,” the Treasury report said. “Credit markets could freeze, the value of the dollar could plummet, U.S. interest rates could skyrocket, the negative spillovers could reverberate

around the world.”

Private economists generally agree that a default on the U.S. debt would be extremely harmful, especially if the impasse was not resolved quickly.

“If they don’t pay on the debt, that would cost us for generations to come,” said Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics. He said a debt default would be a “cataclysmic” event that would roil financial markets in the United States and around the world.

Zandi said that holders of U.S. Treasury bonds would demand higher interest rates which would cost the country hundreds of billions of dollars in higher interest payments in coming years on the national debt.

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, a force in pushing Republicans to link changes to the health care law in exchange for keeping

the government running, spelled out his conditions for raising the borrowing authority.

“We should look for three things. No. 1, we should look for some significant structural plan to reduce government spending. No. 2, we should avoid new taxes. And No. 3, we should look for ways to mitigate the harms from ‘Obamacare,’” Cruz said, describing the debt ceiling issue as one of the “best leverage the Congress has to rein in the executive.”

40138637

changed his opposition to coupling a bill to re-open the government and raise the borrowing authority with Republican demands for changes in the 3-yearold health care law and spending cuts.

Boehner insisted that Obama must negotiate if the president wants to end the shutdown and avert a default that could trigger a financial crisis and recession that would echo the events of 2008 or worse.

The 2008 financial crisis pushed the country into the worst recession since the Great Depression of the 1930s.

“We’re not going to pass a clean debt limit increase,” the Ohio Republican said in a television interview. “I told the president, there’s no way we’re going to pass one. The votes are not in the House to pass a clean debt limit, and the president is risking default by not having a conversation

40499752

WASHINGTON (AP) — The United States moved closer to the possibility of the first-ever default on the government’s debt Sunday as Speaker John Boehner adamantly ruled out a House vote on a straightforward bill to boost the borrowing authority without concessions from President Barack Obama.

With no resolution in sight, Treasury Secretary Jack Lew warned that Congress is “playing with fire” as he called on lawmakers to quickly pass legislation re-opening the government and a measure increasing the nation’s $16.7 trillion debt limit.

The government shutdown precipitated by the budget brinkmanship entered its sixth day with hundreds of thousands of federal employees furloughed, national parks closed and an array of government services on hold.

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE

For Tuesday, Oct. 8, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You'll be careful and cautious when dealing with anything you own jointly with others. This is the kind of day where you think about inheritances and your own mortality. ("Time to go, Martha." "Go? We just got here!")

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Conversations with others will be stilted and formal today, because people feel cautious and conservative. Everyone is hiding behind a game face.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You have excellent powers of concentration today, which is why you should tackle routine work you've been avoiding. You easily will pay attention to details.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Discussions about the care, expense and education of children will be productive today. People are in a serious frame of mind and ready to discuss serious issues.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) An older family relative might have good advice for you today. Alternatively, the same person might rain on your parade. Could go either way.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) You can get lots of mental work done today. You're in a serious frame of mind, and you want to get organized so that you feel more secure about everything around you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Why is there so much month left at the end of the money? Today you feel financially cautious. Actually, many of you feel broke. (Join the club.

We've got jackets.)

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) This is an excellent day for practical discussions or long-range planning.

You want to secure loose ends and finish whatever is already begun.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Someone older and more experienced will be involved with you in a group situation today. This person might be supportive or he or she might criticize your suggestions.

(Ouch.)

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Conversations with bosses, parents and VIPs will be serious but productive today. People are not frivolous or impulsive. Oh no. They're making lists and checking off who is naughty or nice.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Travel likely will be related to work today. This is a good day to study because you have the self-discipline to do so.

YOU BORN TODAY You're romantic and easily carried away by your feelings. You want your life to be an exciting adventure.

Use common senses to lose weight Lavinia Rodriguez

Scripps Howard News Service

SHNS — I often stress that the issue of weight loss and eating is much more complicated than people realize.

Most people attempt weight loss in too simplistic a fashion, making themselves more vulnerable to failing. As long as diet groups, clinics and other providers approach weight loss as just a matter of strict dieting, they will be missing the target and continuing to set consumers up for more repeated disappointment.

And these consumers will believe — wrongly — that the fault is theirs.

To demonstrate my point, let’s talk about just one aspect of managing our eating and weight: satisfaction.

Feeling satisfied with what we eat is critical to weight loss and weight management. If we don’t feel satisfied, our body will continue to crave more food than we need. If the weight-loss plan we put ourselves on ends up (sooner or later) leaving us wanting, we have no chance of staying on it or anything resembling it for long — leading to just another in, perhaps, a long line of failures.

Most people are familiar with the

fact that it takes about 20 minutes for the brain to get the message that we’ve had enough to eat, making it important that we not eat too quickly. This is just a small detail in the complex, yet amazing, workings of our alimentary system (all the body workings and structures involved in nourishment).

In my teaching, I describe how important it is to use all of our senses while eating in order to not overeat. The body depends on all the senses to send the signals necessary for us to feel completely satisfied and to stop eating.

When we eat mindlessly and fast, we deprive ourselves of this wonderful signaling system that helps us manage our weight naturally.

Mary Roach’s book, “Gulp: Adventures on the Alimentary Canal,” teaches more about the amazing physiology of the alimentary tract and how important every inch of it is to our health and satisfaction. Here are a few interesting points from her book: • Chewing: By the time the brain registers that the stomach is full, the thorough eater will have consumed fewer calories than the fast eater. So, if you’re trying to lose weight and you’ve noticed or have been told that you eat quickly, you may want to focus on learning to

slow down. It’s also true that the slower eater gets more enjoyment from less food. The “food shoveler” dumps food down the throat so fast it’s as if the brain has to say, “Pass that by me again.

I didn’t quite catch that.” In the pursuit of taste and enjoyment, the rapid eater has to throw more and more food down before finding satisfaction.

• Swallowing: Apparently swallowing is also essential for feeling satisfied with what we eat. As a matter of fact, swallowing food we’ve just chewed is so important to feeling satiated that if we don’t swallow it the body can’t get rid of the urge to complete the eating process.

Eating isn’t eating to the body without swallowing. One way we know this is from studies of people who have lost their ability to swallow. Roach points out, interestingly, that even people with eating disorders prefer to avoid calories through purging methods or starvation, rarely choosing to chew food and spit it out.

• Sound: Humans seem to like crunchy foods. And the snack industry knows this. They focus a great deal on making relatively nonnutritive snack foods as crunchy as possible so we’ll eat more of them. Perhaps, it is thought, humans evolved to like crispy, crunchy

foods because the sounds signal freshness (such as the difference between a fresh apple and a decaying one). But if we combine lots of texture with high nutrition, we’ll feel more satisfied and become healthier with what we eat.

• Capacity: Apparently it’s a myth that people with bigger-than-normal stomachs are more likely to be obese.

There appears to be no significant difference in the organ’s size between nonobese and obese subjects. According to Roach’s research, we again find out that “it is hormones and metabolism, calories consumed and calories burned, that determine one’s weight, not holding capacity.” So, it’s not that the obese person has to eat more to be satisfied due to a bigger stomach. Satisfaction is more complicated than that.

If we keep certain facts about our bodies in mind and accept them, we can use the body as a partner in our efforts to manage our weight and health. Functions that we normally take for granted, such as chewing, swallowing and using our senses while eating, can naturally help make eating a more enjoyable, satisfying and controllable activity.

Plan to stop TB in kids overdue but problematic

AP Photo Dr. Thomas Louie, an infectious disease specialist at the University of Calgary, holds a container of stool pills in triple-coated gel capsules in his lab in Calgary, Alberta, Canada on Thursday, Sept. 26, 2013. Half a million Americans get Clostridium difficile, or C-diff, infections each year, and about 14,000 die. A very potent and pricey antibiotic can kill C-diff but also destroys good bacteria that live in the gut, leaving it more susceptible to future infections. Recently, studies have shown that fecal transplants - giving infected people stool from a healthy donor — can restore that balance.

Stool pills cure gut infections Marilynn Marchione The Associated Press

Hold your nose and don’t spit out your coffee: Doctors have found a way to put healthy people’s stool into pills that can cure serious gut infections — a less yucky way to do “fecal transplants.” Canadian researchers tried this on 27 patients and cured them all after strong antibiotics failed to help.

It’s a gross topic but a serious problem. Half a million Americans get Clostridium difficile, or C-diff, infections each year, and about 14,000 die.

The germ causes nausea, cramping and diarrhea so bad it is often disabling. A very potent and pricey antibiotic can kill C-diff but also destroys good bacteria that live in the gut, leaving it more susceptible to future infections.

Recently, studies have shown that fecal transplants — giving infected people stool from a healthy donor — can restore that balance. But they’re given through expensive, invasive procedures like colonoscopies or throat tubes. Doctors also have tried giving the stool through enemas but the treatment doesn’t always take hold.

There even are YouTube videos on how to do a similar treatment at home via an enema. A study in a medical journal of a small number of these “do-it-yourself” cases suggests the approach is safe and effective.

Dr. Thomas Louie, an infectious disease specialist at the University of Calgary, devised a better way — a one-time treatment custom-made for each patient.

Donor stool, usually from a relative, is processed in the lab to take out food and extract the bacteria and clean it.

It is packed into triple-coated gel capsules so they won’t dissolve until they reach the intestines.

LONDON (AP) — Health officials are embarking on an ambitious plan to wipe out tuberculosis in children worldwide, even though they don’t know exactly how many cases there are.

Experts say tuberculosis in children — defined as people under the age of 15 — has often been overlooked because there isn’t a reliable diagnostic test and its symptoms are similar to many other childhood illnesses. Also, because children don’t spread the disease, it hasn’t been considered a major public health problem.

“We think that in some regions, up to 90 percent of children with TB are not being reported,” said Dr. Steve Graham of the International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease. He was one of the authors of a strategy issued Tuesday by many health and advocacy groups, including the World Health Organization, UNICEF, and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The plan identifies 10 priorities, including treating children preventively if family members already have TB, and training health workers to spot the disease in kids. It says that stopping children from dying of TB is “within our grasp.”

TB is a treatable bacterial disease usually spread by coughing or sneezing — but young children don’t cough strongly enough to pass on the bacteria. It is the second-leading killer among infectious diseases after AIDS.

Report: Environmental chemicals a pregnancy risk

AP Photo Dr. Thomas Louie, an infectious disease specialist at the University of Calgary, prepares stool pills in his lab in Calgary, Alberta, Canada on Thursday, Sept. 26, 2013. Donor stool, usually from a relative, is processed in the lab to extract the bacteria and clean it. It is packed into triple-coated gel capsules so they won’t dissolve until they reach the intestines.

“There’s no stool left — just stool bugs. These people are not eating poop,” and there are no smelly burps because the contents aren’t released until they’re well past the stomach, Louie said.

Days before starting the treatment, patients are given an antibiotic to kill the C-diff. On the morning of the treatment, they have an enema so “the new bacteria coming in have a clean slate,” Louie said.

It takes 24 to 34 capsules to fit the bacteria needed for a treatment, and patients down them in one sitting.

The pills make their way to the colon and seed it with the normal variety of bacteria.

Louie described 27 patients treated this way on Thursday at IDWeek, an infectious diseases conference in San

Francisco. All had suffered at least four C-diff infections and relapses, but none had a recurrence after taking the poop pills.

Margaret Corbin, 69, a retired nurse’s aide from Calgary, told of the misery of C-diff.

“It lasted for two years. It was horrible. I thought I was dying. I couldn’t eat. Every time I ate anything or drank water I was into the bathroom,” she said. “I never went anywhere, I stayed home all the time.”

With her daughter as the donor, she took pills made by Louie two years ago, and “I’ve been perfectly fine since,” Corbin said.

Dr. Curtis Donskey of the Cleveland Veterans Affairs Medical Center, who has done fecal transplants through colonoscopies, praised the work.

WASHINGTON (AP) — From mercury to pesticides, Americans are exposed daily to environmental chemicals that could harm reproductive health, the nation’s largest groups of obstetricians and fertility specialists said Monday.

The report urges doctors to push for stricter environmental policies to better identify and reduce exposure to chemicals that prove truly risky. But it’s likely to scare pregnant women in the meantime.

That’s because during the first prenatal visit, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists wants doctors to ask mothers-to-be about their exposure to different chemicals. They’re also supposed to teach women how to avoid some considered most worrisome during pregnancy.

“What we’re trying to get is the balance between awareness and alarmist,” said Dr. Jeanne Conry, president of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.

Specialists with ACOG and the American Society for Reproductive Medicine examined research about industrial chemicals and pollutants that people can absorb from the air, water, food and everyday products. Few chemicals hit the market with good information about safe levels — something the groups hope to change. But certain chemicals are linked to infertility, miscarriages, birth defects and other problems, the committee said.

Risks are greatest for women with high on-the-job exposure. So doctors should ask about workplaces during that first prenatal visit, the committee advised.

But the report also cited research suggesting virtually every pregnant woman is exposed to at least 43 different chemicals. It’s unclear how many matter, but some can reach the fetus. For example, mercury pollution builds up in certain fish, and when eaten by a mother-to-be, can damage her unborn baby’s developing brain. Prenatal exposure to certain pesticides can increase the risk of childhood cancer, the report found.

CAIRO (AP) — Clashes erupted on Sunday across much of Egypt between security forces and supporters of the ousted president, leaving 44 killed, as rival crowds of supporters of the military and backers of the Islamist Mohammed Morsi it deposed poured into streets around the country to mark a major holiday.

The capital, Cairo, saw multiple scenes of mayhem as street battles raged for hours in some neighborhoods, with Morsi supporters firing birdshot and throwing firebombs at police who responded with gunshots and tear gas.

In some cases, pro-military crowds set upon supporters of the former president, with the two sides pelting each other with rocks. By late evening, several parts of the city resembled combat zones, with fires burning, black smoke rising and the crack of gunfire piercing the air, thick with tear gas. Streets were strewn with debris.

An Associated Press photographer saw nine bodies lying on the floor of a clinic in the Cairo district of Dokki, scene of some of the heaviest clashes. Most of the bodies had gunshot wounds to the head or chest.

The Health Ministry reported 40 people killed in Cairo and four others killed in provinces south of cairo, with more than 240 people injured. The Interior Ministry, which is in charge of the police, said 423 Morsi supporters were detained across the nation.

The clashes took place on the 40th anniversary of the start of the 1973 Mideast war with Israel, a holiday the military-backed government had wanted to use to pay tribute to the armed forces, whose chief ousted Morsi in a popularly supported coup on July 3.

The clashes were the last chapter in the turmoil roiling the country since the ouster in February 2011 of longtime ruler Hosni Mubarak and are certain to set back efforts by the government to revive the economy, especially the vital tourism sector, and bring order to the streets of Cairo, where crime and lawlessness have been rife.

The scene of the fighting contrasted sharply with a carnival-like mood in Cairo’s central Tahrir Square, where thousands of supporters of the military waved Egyptian flags, blew whistles and touted posters of army chief Gen. AbdelFattah el-Sissi. Adding to the festivities, a military band in green jackets and off-white pants played, and men spun in whirling dervish-style dances.

Earlier in the day, soldiers had barricaded entrances to central Tahrir Square with barbed wire and armored personnel vehicles. Metal detectors were installed at the entrances and demonstrators pouring into the square were searched by troops.

Late on Sunday, el-Sissi and interim President Adly Mansour attended a fireworks extravaganza at a military-owned stadium in the eastern part of Cairo.

El-Sissi’s predecessor, Field Marshal Hussein Tantawi, was among those attending the ceremony, making his first public appearance since Morsi removed him and his chief of staff, Sami Anan, in August last year. Tantawi served Hosni Mubarak as defense minister for 20 years and took over the reins of the country when his mentor was ousted in a 2011 uprising.

Anan, who has presidential ambitions, was not present.

Win over Northwestern keeps OSU in race Jim Naveau

Civitas Media jnaveau@limanews.com

EVANSTON, Ill. – A football game hyped as maybe the biggest regular-season game in Northwestern history could turn out to be the biggest game of Ohio State’s season instead.

The Buckeyes (6-0, 2-0 Big Ten) survived both a very good effort by Northwestern (4-1, 0-1 Big Ten) and some potentially fatal flaws of their own when they beat the Wildcats 40-30 on Saturday night.

With that win, Ohio State remained unbeaten in the Urban Meyer era and kept itself in the chase for a national championship.

There is no doubt OSU needed a win against a ranked team on Saturday night to stay in the championship hunt.

Even with the win, it could be an uphill climb.

After Northwestern, the next opponent on the Buckeyes’ schedule who carries much weight with the poll voters is Michigan.

After taking this week off, OSU will play Iowa, Penn State, Purdue, Illinois and Indiana before the Michigan game on Nov. 30.

Meyer wouldn’t discuss that aspect of the Buckeyes’ win, comparing a reporter who asked about it to a guy who sits down next to a pitcher in the midst of throwing a no-hitter and reminds him

what he’s doing.

“That was a tough game and we toughed one out,” Meyer said. “Anytime you go 12 to 15 rounds with someone and come out the other end, it builds toughness.”

Northwestern made it tough on OSU. But the Buckeyes also were hard on themselves when quarterback Braxton Miller turned the ball over three times and Meyer called for a fake punt, which failed and set Northwestern up on OSU’s 30-yard line, among other mis-steps.

Meyer said the quarterback mistakes were enough of a concern that he came “very close” to putting backup Kenny Guiton into the game after Miller’s second fumble, which came at Northwestern’s

But he stuck with his starter, who eventually was 4 for 4 passing to account for 64 of the 81 yards in the Ohio State drive that gave the Buckeyes the lead for good at 34-30 with 5:22 left in the game.

Overall, though, it was running back Carlos Hyde who gets much of the credit for Ohio State extending its winning streak to 18 games, the longest active streak in college football.

Hyde rushed for 168 yards on 26 carries and scored three touchdowns, all of them in the second half.

dropped passes, Brady threw one toward the goal line and Adam “Pacman” Jones made a juggling interception inside the Cincinnati 5-yard line.

Some finish.

“We knew we were going to have our hands full, but we were able to get to Brady on the second play,” defensive tackle Domata Peko said.

“After that, you could see he was a little shaky. If you hit somebody enough, they’re going to make mistakes.”

Brady had thrown a touchdown pass in 52 straight games, the second-longest streak in NFL history behind Drew Brees’ 54-game streak.

The Patriots were held out of the end zone for the first time since a 16-9 loss to the Jets on Sept. 20, 2009.

Seedings, league standings and even state.

It doesn’t get much bigger than the coming week.

Sunday saw the seeding meetings for the upcoming soccer and volleyball tournaments – but with one week left in the season, most of those teams still have league championships on their mind.

But before getting into that, one team’s season will end this weekend at the highest level. The Tippecanoe girls golf team will compete at the Division II state tournament Friday and Saturday at Ohio State University.

Josh The Red Devils have been to state as Brown a team before in D-II, Sports Editor finishing second by one stroke in 2008.

After a few seasons in Division I – two of which Lindsey Murray qualified for state as an individual – the Devils are back in D-II, and they have a chance to do something special.

Murray went to state as a freshman and sophomore, but she missed out on a trip her junior year. It’s only fitting that, as a senior, she gets to go with the whole team.

But they’re not the only ones whose tournament runs are winding down.

Troy’s boys and girls golf teams will compete at the D-I district tournament on Thursday at Weatherwax Golf Course in Middletown, while a slew of area tennis players will get the privilege of playing at the ATP Tennis Center in Mason the same day at the D-I and D-II district tournament. Troy’s Hannah Essick and Maggie Hennessy and Milton-Union’s Claire Fetters and Jesica Ferguson each won sectional titles on Saturday and will go into Thursday with No. 1 seeds – slightly improving their chances against the toughest district fields in the state.

And then there’s Saturday, which is league meet day in cross country.

Getting defensive Bengals end Brady’s streak, beat Patriots 13-6 “That’s a great accomplishment,” coach Marvin Lewis said. “I don’t normally give out game balls, but I gave that one to Zimmer. They played well today. They were tight in coverage most of the day.

Upfront, they got after it.”

Geno Atkins sacked Brady on his first pass attempt, and the Bengals (3-2) dropped him four times overall. And that wasn’t all: New England (4-1) failed to get into the end zone after a first-and-goal from the 1-yard line in the fourth quarter.

One yard too much for New England? Stunning.

“I’m bummed that we lost,” Brady said of his broken streak. “I think that’s all that really matters.”

A driving rain moved in just before New England’s final chance. After a couple of

WHAT’S INSIDE

CINCINNATI (AP) — Tom Brady couldn’t get into the end zone against a defense that’s developing a reputation for taking down the league’s top quarterbacks.

Aaron Rodgers found out.

And so did Brady, running on empty all game long.

The Bengals ended Brady’s streak of 52 consecutive games with a touchdown pass on Sunday, sacking him on his first pass attempt and keeping the pressure going.

The defense even helped BenJarvus Green-Ellis get into the end zone for the game’s only touchdown in a 13-6 victory over the previously undefeated Patriots.

It was so impressive that defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer was handed a raindrenched game ball in the locker room.

Pirates edge Cardinals 5-3, take 2-1 lead in NLDS

Harvick wins race at Kansas

Kevin Harvick didn’t simply have his hands full with the rest of the Sprint Cup field Sunday.

He also was trying to tame a squirrely surface at Kansas Speedway.

He handled both better than anybody else.

Harvick pulled away from Kurt Busch and Jeff Gordon on a late restart to win a wreck-filled race over the recently repaved track, keeping his No. 29 Chevrolet out of trouble all afternoon and making a big move in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Pedro Alvarez and the Pirates kept that Jolly Roger flapping high above Pittsburgh.

Alvarez hit a tiebreaking single in the eighth inning and the Pirates beat the St. Louis Cardinals 5-3 on Sunday to take a 2-1 lead in best-of-five NL division series.

Alvarez pulled a grounder into right field that scored pinch-runner Josh Harrison from second base. Russell Martin followed with a sharp RBI single against reliever Kevin Siegrist, who took over after Carlos Martinez (0-1) faltered.

The go-ahead single was the latest big hit by Alvarez. He homered in the first two games of the series and is 4 for 10 with four RBIs. Alvarez also kept the Pirates’ famous flag flying high in October. “Raise the Jolly Roger!” is the rallying cry for this wild-card

team, now one victory from its first postseason series win since the 1979 World Series.

Mark Melancon (1-0) picked up the win despite allowing Carlos Beltran’s tying home run in the top of the eighth. Jason Grilli worked the ninth for a save.

Charlie Morton is set to start for the Pirates in Game 4 on Monday against rookie Michael Wacha.

Beltran finished 2 for 3 with three RBIs. His 16th postseason home run moved him past Babe Ruth for eighth place in postseason history.

Beltran’s shot temporarily silenced a rocking crowd at PNC Park. It also set the stage for another dramatic win by the Pirates.

Andrew McCutchen led off the eighth with his second hit, a double to left. But the NL MVP candidate unwisely tried to advance on Justin Morneau’s grounder to

shortstop and was an easy out at third.

Harrison ran for Morneau and moved up when Marlon Byrd walked. St. Louis manager Mike Matheny turned to the lefty Siegrist to face the left-handed Alvarez. The Pittsburgh slugger tied for the NL lead with 36 homers in the regular season, but hit just .180 against lefties.

Alvarez responded with his single between first and second. Martin then tried to drop down a squeeze bunt to score Byrd from third — he fouled it off, then lined a hit to left that gave Grilli more than enough cushion.

Martin’s sacrifice fly off reliever Seth Maness in the sixth gave the Pirates a 3-2 lead and turned the game over to Pittsburgh’s “Shark Tank” bullpen, one of the keys to the franchise’s first winning season and playoff berth in 21 years.

Americans make it 5 in a row at Presidents Cup DUBLIN, Ohio (AP) — Fred Couples, the coolest guy in golf, never really looked that way until he stood on the edge of the 18th fairway Sunday and saw everything going his way.

The Americans needed only one more point to win the Presidents Cup. And there was Tiger Woods, who has a history of delivering the winning point, in the middle of the fairway at Muirfield Village, where he has won a record five times.

The Presidents Cup ended just the way it always does.

Woods found the green and two-putted for par and a 1-up victory over Richard Sterne, the third straight time he has won the clinching point in the Presidents Cup. The Americans won for the fifth straight time — and eighth time in 10 tries — against an International side that showed some fight when it was too late to matter.

The Americans, who finished strong Sunday morning in the raindelayed foursomes for a 14-8 lead, only needed to win four singles matches.

It took longer than anyone expected.

"I must have asked 500 times, 'How are we getting this fourth point?

Where is the fourth point coming from?'" said Couples, a three-time winner as U.S. captain.

"You're nervous. Not for the players — the players know what they're doing.

But we knew we needed 18 points, and we got them. It was a very, very good match today. And the matches were all close. At no given time was I a nervous wreck. But it was nice when Tiger twoputted that last green to get the 18th point."

The final score — States 18½, United International 15½ — and whether the matches would beat the rain was really the only suspense on Sunday.

"People say it was close. Jack (Nicklaus) said was close," it International captain Nick Price said. "You tell me. We were behind the 8ball all day. If we pulled it off, it would have been miraculous."

Not that his team of seven rookies didn't give it a shot.

Zach Johnson closed out Branden Grace, 4 and 2, to give the Americans 17 points and assure them a tie. But it took more than an hour to get that last point.

Graham DeLaet holed out for birdie for the second time Sunday on the 18th hole, this time from a bunker to beat 20-yearold Jordan Spieth. Ernie Els found his putting touch and beat Steve Stricker. Marc Leishman rolled in a 15-foot par putt from the back fringe of the 18th green to beat Matt Kuchar. Adam Scott and Charl Schwartzel won their matches.

International The team's fleeting hopes ended when Woods, despite suffering back spasms again in the final hour of his match, didn't make a birdie on the back nine and still won. Sterne helped him by hitting his tee shot off the corporate tents behind the 16th green and making bogey.

"It was a team effort this whole week," said Woods, who went 4-1 for the best record of any player. "We really played well to give ourselves a nice lead."

Rain interrupted the matches all week and made Muirfield Village so soft that it was mere target practice for the best players from every continent but Europe. It was a long, tiring week of leaving the course at darkness and completing matches the next morning when it was just as dark.

The Americans might have won this Presidents Cup on Sunday morning.

Returning to finish off the foursomes session, the Americans picked up a win and a halve in matches they had trailed by three holes.

Phil Mickelson hit one of many exquisite shots this week — a 7-iron he had to hook with the ball slightly below his feet, around a tree to about 10 feet. Keegan Bradley had to make the birdie putt for a half-point after DeLaet chipped in for birdie. Louis Oosthuizen and Charl Schwartzel played the last six holes in 5-over par — three bogeys and a ball out-ofbounds for double bogey in losing to Webb Simpson and Brandt Snedeker.

Torre says expanded replay system not ready just yet LOS ANGELES (AP) — Joe Torre hopes baseball's expanded instantreplay system will be ready next season.

The MLB executive vice president spoke about replay on Sunday before the Los Angeles Dodgers hosted the Atlanta Braves in Game 3 of their NL division series.

"We're not totally ready yet. We're getting closer and closer," Torre said. "I'm pretty hopeful we'll have it set for next year."

Managers would be allowed one challenge over the first six innings of a game and two from the seventh inning until conclusion.

Balls and strikes would not be reviewable, and challenged calls would be settled at MLB headquarters in New York after replays are viewed.

The issue of expanded replay came up during this series in the ninth inning of Game 2, which the Braves won 4-3.

Dodgers pinch-runner

Dee Gordon attempted to steal second base.

Gordon thought he was successful, but Braves shortstop Andrelton Simmons scooped up the ball on a throw from catcher Gerald Laird and made the tag in one motion.

"I saw everything they showed me on TV and I know people were back in New York looking at stuff," Torre said.

"They were not sure that when he caught the ball the glove didn't graze the uniform and then he reached back for him because he may not have known he tagged him (Gordon)."

The retired manager of the Dodgers and Yankees was asked if he'd be interested in replacing Bud Selig as baseball commissioner.

"If they had asked me to do something for the game I certainly would listen, but I have no aspirations to be commissioner," said Torre, who is 73. "I've got a significant job."

Race From page 11 in the last two quarters is significant because OSU did not have an offensive touchdown at halftime, when it was down 20-13. Bradley Roby’s score on a blocked punt was its only first-half touchdown.

Hyde was frustrated by the lack of offense in the first half and said so. “I went into the locker room and told the offense, ‘That’s unacceptable. That’s not us. We score points, we don’t kick field goals,” he said.

OSU running backs Stan Drayton also had a message at halftime. “Coach Drayton said, ‘Carlos, we’re going to ride you (in the second half),’ ” Hyde said.

Ohio State also rode its defense down the stretch when Northwestern’s last six series produced one touchdown, an interception, two punts, a stop on fourth down and a lost fumble.

Maybe the biggest of those was the defense holding Colter to no gain on fourth down with Northwestern at the Buckeyes’ 34-yard line with 2:43 left on the clock.

“We never got down on ourselves, we just kept going,” freshman defensive lineman Joey Bosa said.

“It was a big step today. It was the first time we were down, the first time we’d really faced adversity.

I like where we’re at. It was amazing. It was one of the best nights of my life,” he said.

The game ended with Bosa recovering a fumble in the end zone for a touchdown that made OSU’s win look a little easier than it was.

“I just saw the ball on the ground and I told myself there is no way I’m not getting it,” Bosa said.

Just like he didn’t let the ball get away, Ohio State didn’t allow a chance at a second consecutive undefeated season and maybe even bigger goals to get away.

Harvick wins at Kansas Speedway

KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — Kevin Harvick didn’t simply have his hands full with the rest of the Sprint Cup field Sunday. He also was trying to tame a squirrely surface at Kansas Speedway.

He handled both better than anybody else.

Harvick pulled away from Kurt Busch and Jeff Gordon on a late restart to win a wreck-filled race over the recently repaved track, keeping his No. 29 Chevrolet out of trouble all afternoon and making a big move in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

“It was an interesting weekend, to say the least,”

said Harvick, who moved into third in points behind leaders Matt Kenseth and Jimmie Johnson.

“Everybody was battling the tires and the track, and I think it was like driving on a razor blade.”

Harvick sat on the pole for the first time in 254 races, and that should have given him some confidence. He also won the last time he qualified first, at New Hampshire in 2006.

“These guys just did a great job all weekend,” Harvick said. “To have a car fast enough for me to qualify on the pole says a lot about how fast this thing is.”

Week From page 11 title already in its pockets, the Troy volleyball team will look to defend its GWOC Tournament title, as well – but it has a tough road. Tuesday

night, the Trojans play at Lebanon, which swept them earlier this season.

There’s also the tournament brackets that were set Sunday for soccer

and volleyball to consider – but, like every coach would say, one step at a time.

We’ll worry about the tournaments next week.

There’s simply too much to focus on before then.

MBC all will be holding theirs concurrently.

Troy’s boys and girls have a shot at the GWOC North titles in Sidney, while Tippecanoe’s teams will likely dominate the CBC. The CCC should be a battle, though – and it’ll be in Miami County, too, as Bethel is hosting.

Speaking of league championships …

Troy’s boys need a win Tuesday night at Piqua to clinch a share of the GWOC North title for the fourth straight season. Tippecanoe’s boys, meanwhile, will clinch a share of the CBC Kenton Trail crown with a win at Kenton Ridge Wednesday.

Troy’s girls, after losing to Sidney on Wednesday, may (or may not) be out of the running for the GWOC North title, but they can still spoil things for Piqua with a win when they host the Indians Wednesday. The win would also give Troy a 4-1 division record, with Sidney already finished with league play at 3-0-2 – which, in my eyes, ties those two teams in the standings. I would think four wins trumps three, whether or not it’s accompanied by a loss, but I personally am not sure what the protocol is.

In my close-to-10 years of covering high school sports, I’ve never seen this happen before.

It won’t matter, of course, if the Trojans’ offense can’t find a way to put the ball in the net soon. And while Piqua is 10-3-1 this season against some so-so competition or worse, the Indians have still proven they can get the job done. This is Troy’s last chance to prove the same.

Even though the CCC volleyball title may as well have been handed out before the season began, the Vikings will take care of the formalities on Tuesday and Thursday. The senior class – including recently-returned Sam Cash – will be the winningest in the school’s history and has only lost one set to league opponents since the seventh grade. Oh, and there’s also a nonleague matchup sandwiched in there against Lehman on Wednesday, too.

Also taking a shot at a league title this week is Milton-Union, who will travel to Preble Shawnee Tuesday. The Bulldogs swept Preble Shawnee in three at home in the third match of the season, and with a win Tuesday night they will share the league title.

Manning, Broncos edge Romo, Cowboys in shootout ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Matt Prater kicked a 28-yard field goal as time expired and Peyton Manning and Denver overcame the first 500-yard passing game in Dallas history to keep the Broncos unbeaten with a 51-48 victory over the Cowboys on Sunday.

Manning maintained his record pace of touchdown passes to start the season and finished with 414 yards and four scores for Denver (5-0).

Tony Romo threw for 506 yards and five touchdowns for Dallas (2-3), but he was intercepted by Danny Trevanthan inside the Dallas 30 to set up Prater’s winning kick.

The teams combined for 1,039 yards of total offense in the secondhighest scoring game in regulation since the NFLAFL merger in 1970, according to STATS. Cincinnati and Cleveland combined for 106 points in the Bengals’ 58-48 win in 2004.

COLTS 34, SEAHAWKS 28 INDIANAPOLIS — Andrew Luck threw two touchdown passes and Donald Brown scored the go-ahead TD with 8:55 to go.

The Seahawks (4-1) lost their first regularseason game since last Nov. 25.

Delano Howell scored on a 61-yard return of a blocked field goal for Indy (4-1).

Luck led his ninth career fourth-quarter comeback by going 16 of 29 for 229 yards, beating Russell Wilson in their first matchup.

SAINTS 26, BEARS 18 CHICAGO — Drew Brees threw two touchdown passes to Pierre Thomas, Jimmy Graham tied an NFL record with another 100-yard game and the New Orleans Saints remained unbeaten.

Brees was 29 of 35 for 288 yards in his first victory in four career games at Soldier Field. Garrett

Hartley matched a career high with four field goals as New Orleans (5-0) picked up its first win in Chicago since a 31-10 victory on Oct. 8, 2000.

Graham continued his torrid start for the Saints (5-0), catching 10 balls for 135 yards in his fourth consecutive 100yard game — matching an NFL record for a tight end. Tony Gonzalez was the first to accomplish the streak in 2000, and Graham matched it in 2011.

Jay Cutler threw for 358 yards and two touchdowns for Chicago (3-2), which has lost two in a row.

CHIEFS 26, TITANS 17 NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Jamaal Charles scored a 1-yard touchdown with 6:23 left, and the Chiefs rallied to keep up their perfect start.

The Chiefs (5-0) are off to their best start since 2003, when they won their first nine games.

This win came despite blowing a 13-0 halftime lead in this early AFC showdown between these surprising teams bouncing back after losing seasons.

The Titans (3-2) couldn’t have been more out of synch in the first half with Ryan Fitzpatrick starting for Jake Locker, sidelined with his sprained right hip. He missed his first five passes and went three-and-out on his first five series before guiding Tennessee to 17 straight points in the second half.

Charles put the Chiefs ahead to stay, and they intercepted Fitzpatrick twice in the final 6:14.

Ryan Succop kicked four field goals, including a 48-yarder.

RAVENS 26, DOLPHINS 23 MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Justin Tucker kicked a 44-yard field goal to put the Baltimore Ravens ahead with 1:42 left, and they withstood a frantic comeback bid.

Ryan Tannehill completed a 46-yard pass to

Brandon Gibson on fourth down to keep Miami’s hopes alive, but Caleb Sturgis then missed a 57-yard field goal attempt wide left with 33 seconds to go.

The Ravens (3-2) bounced back from a loss last week at Buffalo and won on the road for the first time this season. The Dolphins (3-2) lost their second game in a row.

Baltimore moved 34 yards to set up Tucker’s game-winning field goal, his fourth of the day. The Ravens ran for a seasonhigh 133 yards, and Joe Flacco threw for 269 yards.

PACKERS 22, LIONS 9 GREEN BAY, Wis.— James Jones caught a long touchdown pass from Aaron Rodgers, and the Packers defense contained the undermanned Lions.

Mason Crosby kicked five field goals. The Packers’ offense struggled to get into the end zone until Rodgers found Jones on an 83-yard completion down the left sideline for a 16-3 lead late in the third quarter.

It provided enough of a cushion for a defense that had the luxury of facing the Lions minus star receiver Calvin Johnson, out with a knee injury.

Penalties also bogged down Detroit.

The Packers extended their winning streak in Wisconsin over the Lions to 23.

EAGLES 36, GIANTS 21 EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Nick Foles threw for two touchdowns and led four scoring drives after taking over for an injured Michael Vick late in the second quarter, and Philadelphia kept the Giants winless.

Foles threw fourthquarter touchdown passes of 25 yards to Brent Celek and 5 yards to DeSean Jackson as the Eagles (2-3) snapped a three-game losing streak by forcing three interceptions by Eli Manning in

Rodgers in a 34-30 win over Green Bay, overcoming four turnovers by Cincinnati’s offense that gave the Packers good field position.

Brady never got into a rhythm against Cincinnati’s unrelenting pass rush. He finished 18 of 38 for 197 yards with

one interception and a paltry passer rating of 52.2.

Cincinnati’s defense even had a hand — well, a shoulder — in the winning touchdown.

The Bengals had failed to score a touchdown during a 17-6 loss at Cleveland, one that left

the fourth quarter.

Vick left the game with a hamstring injury late in the second quarter.

LeSean McCoy added a 1-yard touchdown run and Alex Henery kicked five field goals for the Eagles, who gained 439 yards in total offense.

David Wilson scored on a 5-yard run for the Giants (0-5) and Manning threw two touchdowns to Rueben Randle in the third quarter to give New York a 21-19 lead.

CARDINALS 22, PANTHERS 6 GLENDALE, Ariz. — Arizona sacked Cam Newton seven times, once for a safety, and intercepted him on three occasions to overcome a sluggish offensive performance.

Daryl Washington, back after serving a four-game

suspension for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy, had two sacks and an interception for Arizona (3-2).

Calais Campbell had two sacks, one for Arizona’s first regular-season safety in nine years, the other forcing a gameclinching fumble. Karlos Dansby also had two sacks and an interception.

Carolina (1-3), playing for the first time since a 38-0 victory over the New York Giants two weeks ago, managed only Graham Gano’s field goals of 22 and 51 yards.

Arizona’s Carson Palmer threw for a touchdown but was intercepted three times.

RAMS 34, JAGUARS 20 ST. LOUIS — Sam Bradford threw three

touchdown passes and Matt Giordano’s 82-yard interception return was one of several big plays from the St. Louis defense against winless Jacksonville.

Austin Pettis’ 31-yard TD catch with 5:45 to go was his second of the day and put the Rams (2-3) up by two scores. St. Louis, which had trailed by double digits in every game, established control with a 17-point second quarter after Jacksonville (0-5) had a pair of early leads.

Jaguars quarterback Blaine Gabbert injured his left hamstring in the third quarter. Rookie left tackle Luke Joeckel was carted off with a right ankle injury in the first.

them looking to establish an identity on offense by running the ball. They did what they wanted in one grinding drive.

Cincinnati went 93 yards in 14 plays for its touchdown, holding the ball for 7 minutes, 48 seconds. Peko came in as a blocking fullback on third-and-goal from inside the 1-yard line but took off too soon, a false start.

Andy Dalton scrambled to the 1 on a keeper, and Peko came in and plowed the way for Green-Ellis to score on fourth down.

Dalton was 20 of 27 for 212 yards with four sacks and one costly interception. He scrambled away from pressure and threw

back across the field in the first quarter, getting intercepted by Brandon Spikes at the 8-yard line.

It was the first time during his three-year career that Dalton threw an interception on a play that started inside the opponent’s 20-yard line.

Given how the defense was playing, the one touchdown drive was good enough. “It’s definitely fun to watch those guys go out and play,� Dalton said. “They’re doing so many good things, and to see what they do to a guy like Tom Brady and what they’ve done to a lot of these quarterbacks — they’re some of the best in the league.

“They’re playing unbelievable.�

Notes: Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski was inactive for the fifth time. He’s recovering from a forearm injury and back surgery. ‌ Brady had been 4-0 against the Bengals with a 114 passer rating. ‌ WR Austin Collie, signed on Thursday, also was inactive. ‌ DL Tommy Kelly hurt his right knee in the fourth quarter but walked off the field. ‌ New England has a takeaway in 32 straight games, the longest active streak in the league. ‌ Bengals CB Leon Hall missed a second straight game with a hamstring injury.
